Under My Bed

Come to my window, my house is asleep I'll leave a light on for you The chain-linked fence slaps against the wind's cheek Breaking the silent curfew Through cupped hands, we make plans So they won't take you away Though harm sleeps Our instincts are fighting to keep us awake Come and live under my bed (My) closet is where all the wild things hide When I'm alone, they take charge The flashlight's a gun Yellow bullets of light Battles my fear of the dark Through cupped hands, we make plans So they won't take you away Though harm sleeps Our instincts are fighting to keep us awake Come and live under my bed It's what I've always wanted Wake ups are hiccups I have in my dreams I hold my breath 'til I'm blue Though pins and needles may put me to sleep I'll never lose feeling for you Through cupped hands, we make plans So they won't take you away Though harm sleeps Our instincts are fighting to keep us awake Come and live under my bed It's what I've always wanted Don't tell anybody, especially grown-ups 'Cause grown-ups would not understand Oh, so come and live under my bed Oh, come and live under my bed
